advice.

ATTACHMENTS
TO FIT AND REMOVE ATTACHMENTS FIG. A
Ensure that the device is switched off before fitting or removing attachments.
• To remove, rotate the attachment anti-clockwise until it unlocks and then lift it off.
• To fit, place the desired attachment on top of the device and rotate the attachment
clockwise to lock it into place.
FITTING AND REMOVING FIXED GUIDE COMBS
To Fit
• Hook the front of the guide comb over the blade.
• Press the back of the guide comb down until it clicks into place.

7
To Remove
• Lift the tab on the back of the guide comb upwards until it comes free from the blade.
ADJUSTABLE STUBBLE COMB FIG. B
• Fit the adjsutable stubble guide comb in the same way as you would fit a fixed guide
comb.
• The 1.0 - 5 mm comb can be adjusted in 0.5mm increments simply by turning the
wheel to the desired setting. Turn the wheel clockwise for longer length and
anticlockwise for shorter length.
• The indicator on the wheel will point to the chosen setting.
• Use the trimmer without the adjustable comb for trimming hair close to the skin. This
will trim hair to 1.0 mm, holding the blades perpendicular to the skin will trim hair to
0.5 mm.
BODY HAIR COMB FIG. C
• Clip the desired body hair comb over the body hair attachment.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
• Comb facial hair with a fine comb before you start trimming.
• Comb your hair in the direction that it grows so that the hairs are at their maximum
height and facing in the same direction.
• After trimming, lightly go over the trimmed areas with the foil to get a smooth clean
finish.
• Since all hairs do not grow in the same direction, you may want to try different
trimming positions (i.e. upwards, downwards or across) for better results.
• Hair should be dry and free from any waxes or lotions.
• If hair builds up during use, switch the unit off, remove any attachment in use and
clean any excess hair clippings from the attachment and groomer.
TO THIN AND TAPER THE BEARD/MOUSTACHE
• Attach the adjustable stubble comb or a fixed guide comb to the T-blade. If you are
trimming for the first time start with the maximum trimming length setting.
• Turn the unit on.
• Start trimming under the chin following the line of the jaw.
• Place the flat top of the trimmer comb against the skin.
• Slowly slide through the hair. Work upwards towards the ear and upper beard line.
Repeat from different directions as necessary.
• Tidy the beard edges using the T-blade. Use slow controlled movements to create
contoured lines.
• If hair builds up in the trimmer comb during the trimmer process, switch the unit off,
pull the comb and brush the hair off.

FINE DETAILING AND EDGING
1. Hold the device with the cutting blade (teeth) facing you and at 90 degrees to the skin.
2. Start with the blade resting lightly against your skin, use motions towards edge of
beard line to trim to desired locations in facial area.
3. Shape as desired.
CONTOUR EDGING AND CLOSE HAIR CUTTING
Contour edging:
1. Hold the device with the cutting blade (teeth) facing you and at 90 degrees to the skin.
2. Start with the edge of the beard/moustache line and, with the blade resting lightly
against the skin, use slow controlled movements to create contoured lines.
Close hair cutting:
1. Use the fingers of one hand to lift the hair at the base of your head up off your neck.
2. Your index finger should be covering the roots of the hairs you are lifting to prevent
them from being accidentally cut.
3. Hold the trimmer to the base of your neck with the blade facing up. Move the trimmer
up the neck until it touches your index finger which is protecting the hair roots.
4. Move your trimmer slowly and keep the hair roots at the base of your head out of the
way of the trimmer.
BODY HAIR TRIMMING
Body hair maintenance: Trimming to length
1. Select the desired comb.
2. Place the flat side of the attachment against the skin.
3. Slowly slide the trimmer through the hair in the direction of hair growth.
4. Use slow, well-controlled movements.
Body hair maintenance: Removal
1. Remove the comb and go over the areas where you want to remove the body hair.
2. Stretch the skin with your free hand to make the hairs stand upright.
3. Use light pressure and shave against the direction of hair growth.
HAIR CLIPPING
Step 1: Nape of the neck
• Attach the 3mm or 6mm fixed comb.
• Hold the trimmer with the blade teeth pointing upwards. Start at the centre of the
head at the base of the neck.
• Slowly lift the trimmer, working upwards and outwards through the hair trimming just
a little at a time.
Step 2: Back of the head
• With the 12mm or 18mm guide comb attached, cut the hair at the back of the head.

9
Step 3: Side of the head
• With the 3mm or 6mm guide comb attached, trim sideburns. Then change to the
longer 9mm guide comb and continue to cut the top of the head.
Step 4: Top of the head
• Use the longer length fixed combs of 18mm or 25mm to cut hair on top of the head
against the direction in which the hair normally grows.
• Always work from the back of the head.
Step 5: The finishing touches
• Use the trimmer without a comb for close trimming around the base and sides of the
neck.
• To produce a clean straight line at the sideburns, place the trimmer at right angles to
the head, tips of the blades lightly touching the skin and then work downwards.
USING THE FOIL SHAVER
• Fit the foil shaver attachment.
• Use short, well-controlled linear movements. Use your free hand to stretch your skin.
This encourages the hair to stand upright, making it easier to shave.
• Note: always trim your facial hair before shaving.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Care for your appliance to ensure a long lasting performance. We recommend that you clean
it after each use.
AFTER EACH USE
• Brush any accumulated hairs from the trimmer and attachment heads.
• The easiest and most hygienic way to clean the trimmer is under the tap.
• Place one or two drops of oil on the blades. Turn the appliance on to distribute the oil
evenly, wipe off any excess oil.
REPLACING THE FOILS AND CUTTERS
To ensure continued high quality performance from your shaver, we recommend the foils
and cutters are replaced regularly.
Signs that your foils and cutters need replacing
• Irritation: as foils get worn, you may experience skin irritation.
• Pulling: as the cutters wear, your shave may not feel as close and you may feel the
cutter pulling your hair.
• Wear through: you may notice that the cutters have worn through the foils.
TO REPLACE THE FOIL/CUTTERS
• Remove the shaver head (pull the head up and off).
• Fit the new head assembly over the hair pocket and press down to click into place.
